Meghan and Harry Ignore Palace Request to Keep Talk With Queen “Private” and Turn it Into PR Blitz For Themselves

Meghan and Harry love their privacy and expect everyone to honor that, but when the palace asks them to do the same, they can’t be bothered.

The duo had what was supposed to be a “private talk” with the Queen for her birthday – a chat that the palace specifically asked be kept on the down-low – but instead the duo turned it into a PR extravaganza for themselves.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex called the monarch from their new home in California to wish her a happy 94th birthday.

But it was hardly an intimate affair. The privacy obsessed couple were so keen to tell the world about the afternoon chat that they instructed their spokesman to email a selection of hand-picked publications to share the news shortly afterwards.

Harry and Meghan’s rush to make the news public was at odds with the wishes of Buckingham Palace, which had expressly stated that details of any calls between the Queen and her family on the occasion of her ‘low-key’ birthday should be private.

Last week a spokesman announced the monarch would – for the first time in her reign – scale down birthday celebrations such as the traditional gun salutes and flag flying because of coronavirus, saying: ‘Her Majesty’s birthday will not be marked in a special way – and calls, video calls, with family will be private and kept so.

This move comes right after Harry and Meghan chastised British publications for broadcasting private moments in their lives. They went so far to say that they will no longer give interviews to certain publications who they deem have not covered them “fairly” and who have broadcast personal information.

That’s fine, but then why turn around and do the same exact thing?

I guess if it benefits Meghan and Harry it’s okay.
